    We started in Colombo, and I was immediately impressed by the smooth organization of the trip. The visits to cultural sites like Dambulla’s cave temples and Anuradhapura’s ancient ruins were fascinating. Sigiriya was a standout for me, both for its history and the stunning panoramic views. We also enjoyed some time in Nuwara Eliya, which provided a refreshing change with its cooler climate. Yala National Park was incredible, with the opportunity to spot wild animals like leopards. The guides were great, and the driver was always on time. Good experience for me.

    Beautiful and Comprehensive Tour I’m so glad I took this tour of Sri Lanka! It covered all the highlights of the country, from the ancient cities to the breathtaking natural landscapes. The trip was perfectly paced, allowing us time to explore historical sites like Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa, with a knowledgeable guide providing fascinating insights. Sigiriya was one of the most impressive places I’ve ever visited, and the view from the top was worth every step. The hotels were comfortable. Our driver was always friendly and made sure we had a smooth ride. We even had a chance to see Sri Lanka’s wildlife in Yala National Park. I highly recommend this tour for Sri Lanka.

    This tour was the perfect to experience Sri Lanka in all its glory. It offered so much more than just sightseeing our guide’s knowledge of the country’s history and culture really made every stop special. The ancient ruins at Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa were fascinating, and climbing Sigiriya was definitely an adventure. The safari in Yala National Park was another highlight, and I’m still in awe of the wildlife. We also had a chance to enjoy the beautiful scenery in Nuwara Eliya and Bentota. The hotels were all good, and the driver was always punctual and friendly. This trip was a great for Sri Lanka.

    This tour was perfect into Sri Lanka history and culture. From visiting ancient cities like Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa to marveling at the Sigiriya Rock Fortress, every day brought something new and exciting. The tour guides were knowledgeable and always happy to answer any questions. We also had a very comfortable stay in the hotels, which were perfectly located for the trips we made each day. The driver was punctual and made sure we were always safe on the road. The trip to Nuwara Eliya with its cool climate and beautiful landscapes was another highlight. Overall, it was an excellent way to explore Sri Lanka culture and history.

    This was a trip of a lifetime. The tour was well-paced, offering a perfect combination of historical exploration and natural beauty. We started in Colombo and went to Negombo, where we explored the local culture before heading to Dambulla’s cave temples and ancient sites like Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa. Climbing Sigiriya was a bit challenging, but the view from the top was well worth it! I also loved the safari in Yala National Park seeing leopards in the wild was such a thrill. The accommodations were always comfortable, and our driver was kind and helpful. If you want to see the best of Sri Lanka, this tour is definitely amazing.

    This trip to Sri Lanka was truly an unforgettable experience. Sigiriya was one of the most memorable stops, as we climbed the rock fortress and admired the stunning views. The hotels were great, providing everything we needed, and the guides were friendly and knowledgeable. The highlight for me was the visit to Yala National Park, where we had the chance to spot leopards and other animals. All in all, this tour gave us a perfect blend of history, culture, and nature. Perfect.

    Just returned from this amazing tour, and I couldn’t have asked for a better way to experience Sri Lanka. The historical sites, like the cave temples in Dambulla and the ancient ruins in Anuradhapura, were fascinating. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable and made everything so much more interesting. I really enjoyed the climb to Sigiriya the views from the top were breathtaking. The accommodation was excellent throughout. Our driver was professional and made sure we had a smooth ride all the way through. A special mention for the wildlife safari in Yala National Park seeing wildlife up close was a highlight. Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Sri Lanka.
